Thanks to everyone who has rated me this year. I will still be around to rate in December but just fancy a month off writing. Would appreciate some rates on my older reviews also.

I have always been sceptical of these fast relief medical treatments until I actually had no choice but to try one. A knee injury (which later turned out to be torn ligaments and cartiledge) left me in total agony for virtually 24 hours a day. I was in so much pain that I was awake most of the night. I was bought some of this ibuprofen gel by the wife who had had to suffer the sleepless nights with me. With contempt, I rubbed the recommended 10cm into my knee and expected minimal improvement that would probably last for about 10 minutes. I was amazed therefore when, almost instantly the gel got to work and started easing the pain in my knee. I was able to get more movement out of the knee, though the pain hadnt gone away completely. By applying the gel every 4 hours or so, I was able to get through the day and night a lot easier. Anybody who thinks that buying this gel will make them pain free will probably be disappointed but it certainly made my life a whole lot easier until I eventually had to have an operation. I would certainly recommend this product. A tube lasted me about a week applying 10cm, 3 or 4 times a day.
How helpful would this review be to a person making a buying decision? Rating guidelines
I'm sure iI read on the box that it shouldn't be used if you have a history of stomach ulcers ( as that includes me) I have always avoided this and made do with the hot and cold rotation method . .... Bag of frozen peas then a warm wheat pillow for any aches and pains I get :-)

Good review but could do with some more info to gain higher ratings. Take a look at other reviews to get an idea of the level of info that is needed to gain higher ratings. x
